"I told you we would meet again," the werewolf said, his face twisted into a wicked grin.I stared at him in fear, my breath frozen in my throat. I couldn't move a muscle and it terrified me. Why couldn't I move?The werewolf seemed to understand me and he chuckled. "Don't worry," he assured. "It's a mild tranquilizer, something to calm your spirited wolf while we have a little chitchat. Can't risk letting you bite my head off"He laughed at his own joke and all I could do was stare at him. My entire limbs felt like jelly. I tried to connect with Moon but she had retreated far into my mind, a place I couldn't reach her."I hope my little pets weren't too much for you," the werewolf continued, waving a hand towards the rogue werewolves. "They're so obedient when it comes to following my orders""You... control... the rogues?" I asked in shock, forcing the words through my lips that were so numb that it was difficult to speak."Of course, my sweet," the werewolf said, relaxing against a

SerenityMy eyes slowly opened and I pushed myself up. My body protested with my movements and I felt dizzy and weak. I didn't know why I felt so weak. I hadn't been attacked. I wasn't hurt, yet I felt like my entire body was on fire.I wanted to remain on the bed but after hearing everything Uncle Lucian told Alpha Gabriel about me, I couldn't. My mind was in disarray, my thoughts were scattered. I felt like my entire existence was a lie. I had lived with Uncle Lucian for years, right from a baby to an adult, and yet he still kept the truth about my identity hidden.One question resounded in my head.Why? Why would he do a thing like that? I had every right to know about my parents, and about what kind of strange powers I possessed. The fact that he thought he was protecting me by not telling me was what angered me.I stared at the two of them as they spoke by the window, and then Alpha Gabriel turned his head and stared at me."You're awake," he rushed to the bed and gently lowered

I was in a state of fury. I couldn't even think straight. All I wanted was to feel my hands squeezing the life out of my uncle. The thought was scary, but that was what I needed at that point.Uncle Lucian didn't try to defend himself. He lay against the wall, holding his side and staring at me with an expression filled with guilt, regret and remorse."Why?" I sobbed, tears spilling down my eyes. "Why didn't you help them? Why?"Uncle Lucian cried with me as he tried to get up from the ground. "Words can't express how regretful I am Serenity," he cried. "Everyday, I blame myself for looking and doing nothing. I will never forgive myself for what I did"I fell to the ground and cried my eyes out. Uncle Lucian crawled over to me and took me in his arms, crying with me. My heart felt so heavy. I let him hold me as we cried for the loss of our loved ones."I regret it, Serenity. I really do. By the time I came back to my senses, it was already too late. I watched him lower you beneath a t

The next few days went past with no incident. Alpha Gabriel kept a close watch on me, and even with all my complaints, he didn't relent. He never let me step out on my own. Two of his warriors always stayed with me wherever I went because I hadn't moved into the mansion yet. That morning, I woke up in a sour mood. My dreams had been filled with memories of the night I was kidnapped. The strange werewolf had appeared to me again, claiming me as his and vowing that we would meet again. It turned my mood sour as I got out of bed. Fortunately, there were no warriors stationed outside my room. It was strange and I wondered what Alpha Gabriel might be up to. I groaned and trudged out of my room. My uncle was in the kitchen preparing breakfast when I entered. "Morning, Uncle Lucian," I mumbled and sat atop the high stool. I rested my elbows on the large table and plopped my chin on my palms. "Morning, honey," Uncle Lucian smiled up at me, then he frowned. "What's got you in a bad mood

Alpha GabrielI arrived home hours later. After Serenity stormed off in anger, I needed time to think so I went on a run, giving Spirit the opportunity to run wild. I used that opportunity to go round my territory, round the forest surrounding Blackwood, my home. Even with the run, I couldn't think straight. I felt so terrible. The fact that Serenity was hurt because of me made me feel like the worst person on earth. How could I have spoken to her in that manner? A girl I was really crazy about? How could I hurt her that way? Honestly, in a way, I didn't regret what I said. If I wasn't mated to Serenity, I wouldn't want her to reject her mate for me because it would be a terrible thing to do. I didn't own her. "Yet it seems you've used her," Spirit growled at me. I sighed."I didn't mean to treat her that way," I tried to defend myself but Spirit growled at me again. "I tried to warn you to stay away from her. You had no business being with a woman who isn't mated to you yet""I
